Burdekin Shire Council Chambers, Heritage-listed council chambers in Ayr, Australia.
The Burdekin Shire Council Chambers at 145 Young Street features brick construction with concrete designs and timber verandahs throughout its two-level structure.
Following a fire that destroyed the original timber building in 1919, architect Frederick Smith designed the current chambers, which were completed in 1922.
The meeting room within the chambers functions as a central gathering space for local organizations, including the Queensland Country Women's Association.
The building provides administrative services and hosts council meetings for residents of the Burdekin Shire, supporting local governance and community engagement.
The chambers received heritage status in 1997, marking its connection to the development of the sugar industry in the Lower Burdekin region.
